Spring Into Health - 2013

Save the
date for the 5th Annual Spring into Health Community Day! Each year,
volunteers from Penn Presbyterian Medical Center gather experts in health and
wellness together for a free community health fair in West Philadelphia. In
recent years, attendees have received blood pressure and diabetes screenings,
HIV testing, nutritional and smoking cessation counseling, pharmaceutical
medication review, physical fitness, stress management tips and more. In
addition, cultural performances, face painting, light food and giveaways are
present throughout the afternoon.

The ongoing
partnerships between Penn Medicine, Explorers Sans Frontières (ESF), The
People’s Emergency Center, and The Partnership CDC, along with many other local
organizations are vital to improving the health and wellness of our community.
In recent years, we’ve seen great change in west Philadelphia, but this is only
the beginning. Please save the dates and come out for a great time in May!
